Archipelago Yachts is to introduce hybrid propulsion systems to its range through a partnership with e-Motion Hybrid Systems.
The partnership will see the integration of e-Motion’s hybrid propulsion systems into Archipelago Yachts range.
“We are excited to partner with e-Motion Hybrid Systems to offer our clients a range of yachts that not only offer exceptional performance and luxury, but also that reduce their impact on the environment,” said Dr Stephen Weatherley, Archipelago founder.
“This partnership aligns perfectly with our vision of leading the yachting industry towards a more sustainable future.”
Michele Maggi of e-Motion hybrid systems said of the partnership: “We are thrilled to be teaming up with Archipelago Yachts to help revolutionise their vessels capabilities and contribute towards a greener future.
“We feel that Archipelago is the perfect addition to our growing network of companies dedicated to sustainable maritime solutions.”
e-Motion supplies hybrid systems suitable for yachts measuring from 15m to 65m.
The system is pre-assembled and ready for installation in all production yachts and designed for plug-and-play compatibility.
The hybrid systems use a combination of electric and diesel power to optimise efficiency and reduce the environmental impact sailors have when at sea.
The system has a user-friendly interface, and the yacht will automatically switch from full diesel-propulsion to electric mode, or to diesel-electric propulsion at the push of a button.
e-Motion’s diesel-electric hybrid propulsion is available across the range of Archipelago Yachts from the Archipelago 40 to the Archipelago 80.
